Question - Mez timer

Hi guys,

So Im looking for a HUD / macro that will show me the duration of mez on different targets. I guess debuffs as well but mainly mez.

I found one macro on the mq2 forums call hudtimer.mac. This seems like it would be ok but the OP version doesnt work and the one version that does I cant figure out how to add my own spells.

Does anyone have a macro like this or can anyone take a look at this one and point me in the direction of how to add in my spells. Thanks

Btw the first one looks like you could add in spells easily with the ini. But only the last post macro works for me.

Thanks
 
I played around with this a bit on my 75 chanter.

Notes:
This macro doesn't take into account your AA's or Focus items so duration on mez is default spell.
1. Use the last macro posted.
2. Pay no attention to the HudTimer.ini. It not used in that last version
3. Use the hud below

Rich (BB code):
[Elements]
HudTimer1=3,480,240,050,255,255,${HudArrayTimer[5,1]}
HudSpell1=3,530,240,255,255,255,${HudArrayTimer[2,1]}
HudTarget1=3,630,240,255,255,050,${HudArrayTimer[3,1]}

HudTimer2=3,480,250,050,255,255,${HudArrayTimer[5,2]}
HudSpell2=3,530,250,255,255,255,${HudArrayTimer[2,2]}
HudTarget2=3,630,250,255,255,050,${HudArrayTimer[3,2]}

HudTimer3=3,480,260,050,255,255,${HudArrayTimer[5,3]}
HudSpell3=3,530,260,255,255,255,${HudArrayTimer[2,3]}
HudTarget3=3,630,260,255,255,050,${HudArrayTimer[3,3]}

HudTimer4=3,480,270,050,255,255,${HudArrayTimer[5,4]}
HudSpell4=3,530,270,255,255,255,${HudArrayTimer[3,4]}
HudTarget4=3,630,270,255,255,050,${HudArrayTimer[3,4]}

HudTimer5=3,480,280,050,255,255,${HudArrayTimer[5,5]}
HudSpell5=3,530,280,255,255,255,${HudArrayTimer[3,5]}
HudTarget5=3,630,280,255,255,050,${HudArrayTimer[3,5]}

What spells did you want to add?

To add Bewilderment Rk. II I mezd stuff in the newbie zone to see the message a snake gazes happily into space. and then added the #Event up top and the sub Event_ below with the others.

Rich (BB code):
#Event Bewilderment "#*#gazes happily into space.#*#"
Rich (BB code):
Sub Event_Bewilderment
   /varset DebuffSpell Bewilderment
   /echo ${DebuffSpell}
   /call SetupTimer
/return

Interesting concept for a macro 7 years old. The idea to make it an inc file has potential but it needs work to make it accurate and truly useful.
 
Hi thanks,

I am trying to add

Glamour if Kintaz

Just doesnt seem to do anything when i add those sections in.

no sure what im doing wrong

Is there something better for monitoring mez times? I was kinda suprised I couldnt find something tailored for the job. I think it would be really handy.

Oh wow. I didnt have the . on the end was why it didnt work.

I dont suppose you know how to make it remove the timers when the mob dies at all?
The macro at the top of page says it does that as a revision but obviously that one doesnt work for some reason.

I really like this. If you could click the names to target and such it would be cool but its not too shabby as is :)

Thanks heaps for helping me again. I really appreciate it.

EDIT:
actually I see this line is in there about death, i guess its got something wrong in it.
/if (!${Spawn[${HudArrayTimer[4,${counter}]}].State.Equal[DEAD]} && ${Math.Calc[${HudArrayTimer[1,${counter}]}-${Time.SecondsSinceMidnight}].Int}>0) {

I might just remove all the debuff lines and leave it as a mez timer only.
 
I am in the middle of getting to ready to release KissAssist 4 Beta so I am a little busy right now. I really like the idea of this macro and I will be updating it some time soon. I might even add the idea to a future version of KissAssist.
 
Brilliant!

kissassist looks really good. Might have to take a look at that next.
 
As a note you might be able to use

{Me.AltAbility[Mezmerization Mastery].Cost} or something to get the number of ranks you have in it and add it directly to the number of ticks involved. With Mez mastery 3 (max) PBAE mezzes go from 1 tick (6 seconds) to 4 ticks (24 seconds).
